GUEST,ok, so I'm a shite guitarist Dave Matthews: Whats up with him (35) RE: Dave Matthews: Whats up with him 02 Oct 05


What is going on? Is he playing a full chord as a primary and then partial chords on the off beat to walk up or down to the next full chord?I can see where this style has it's uses and would be interesting to try in some instances. But otherwise I find it confusing.


whaaaa??


seriously.. I dont know where that comes from.. I find THAT confusing ?

we listened to records.. watched guys play.. and picked it up by ear and example..


if it sounds right in a song.. then its ok..


sorry.. but I am a bit perplexed..

not trying to be 'enigmatic'



but would'nt mind being Chuck Berry or Eddie Cochran or Buddy Holly or etc


.. I did'nt even know they had 'primarys'and 'partials' and 'off beat walk ups'
in those glorious unselfconciously inovative guitar expanding days..
